In data centers hosting scaling Internet applications, operators face the tradeoff dilemma between resource efficiency and Quality of Service (QoS), and the root cause lies in wo...
In parallel computing environments such as HPC clusters and the Grid, data-intensive applications involve large overhead costs due to a concentration of access to the files on co...
This paper analyses reported difficulties in spatial data retrieval from Internet portals, based on results from an empirical survey. The analysis reveals the problems which cause ...
In-memory data sharing for grids allow location-transparent access to data stored in volatile memory. Existing Grid middlewares typ- ically support only explicit data transfer betw...
Transactional memory (TM) simplifies parallel programming by guaranteeing that transactions appear to execute atomically and in isolation. Implementing these properties includes p...
